Shaped & Holey Boards . KNIGHT'S TOUR NOTES 3 Shaped & Holey Boards by G. P. Jelliss 2019 1 . KNIGHT'S TOUR NOTES ======================================================================== Title Page Illustrations: Biaxial tours of 12 and 20 cell boards, the first of each being by Euler (1759). The asymmetric 16-cell tour covers a quarter of the standard 8×8 chessboard. The large diagram is of a 320-cell tour by the Rajah of Mysore. The original, in a form of Indian Script, is shown on page 20 of Das Schach und seine asiatischen Verwandten (2008) by Maria Schetelich. The central 8×8 tour is the Rajah's magic tour, numbered with 1 at f2 and 64 at d1. At the centres of the 7-move stars in the outer border 20 cells of the 18×18 board are omitted. The tour as a whole is closed, cell 320 being a knight move from cell 1. Rotary tours of a 24-cell board and of 76-cell boards formed by removing 24 cells from a 10×10 board, externally or internally. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Contents Octonary 3.

KNIGHT'S TOUR NOTES ======================================================================== Octonary ======================================================================== A pattern within a square area that appears unaltered by any of the transformations which leave the square unaltered has octonary symmetry. The diagonals and medians devide the pattern into eight triangles all of the same pattern. Such symmetry is also termed ‘square’ or ‘perfect square’ symmetry. For the cells to be considered a ‘board’ they must be properly connected edge to edge. Cells can be omitted in fours on the diagonals and medians, or in eights when off-axis. Tours with octonary symmetry thus all use a multiple of 8 cells (4 diagonal, 4 medial, each other position in sets of 8). A knight tour with octonary symmetry on any even-sided board, such as the 8×8 chessboard, is impossible. In fact tours with octonary symmetry are not possible within any even-sided area, even with holes. Octonary tours all require boards within a containing square of odd side and omit the centre cell. Every octonary tour consists of eight equal paths, each path having one end on a median cell and the other end on a diagonal cell. 8 cells: The smallest board with a closed knight tour is of course the 8-cell centreless 3×3 board. In our coding system the centre cell is 0, the mid-edge cells are 1, and the corner cells are 2, so the moves are described by the formula: 1-2. The earliest manuscripts associated with al-Adli and as-Suli (c.900) include the puzzle, often attributed to the later writer Guarini (1512), of the four knights. White and Black knights placed in the corners of the 3×3 board are to be interchanged by knight moves without having two on a cell at the same time. The knights go in procession round the star-shaped closed tour of the eight edge cells (taking 4 not 2 moves each). NN n n 16 cells: The next case is a 16-cell tour within a 5×5 area, leaving a cross-shaped hole, tour formula 2-4-3. I call this ‘the bound cross’. 24 cells: The shortest octonary tours within the 7×7 area are two with 24 cells, both having the formula 1-7-4-2, where the 7-4 move can be taken in two different ways. We can write it 7:4 or 7;4 according as the move crosses a median or diagonal. 9 8 7 6 7 8 9 8 5 4 3 4 5 8 7 4 2 1 2 4 7 6 3 1 0 1 3 6 7 4 2 1 2 4 7 8 5 4 3 4 5 8 9 8 7 6 7 8 9 The inset diagram above shows how the cells are coded from the centre outwards. The 7-4 or 4-7 moves are the only cases where the coding of a move is ambiguous. 32 cells: There are 6 other octonary tours within the 7×7 area, on two board shapes, covering 32 cells. Their formulas are 3-4-7-8-2, 3-8-7-4-2, 3-8-7-4-9 with two of each according as the move 7-4 is across diagonal or median. 3 . KNIGHT'S TOUR NOTES There are another 8 octonary tours of 32 cells within the 9×9 area using three board shapes. The formulas including the 7-4 link are 3-11-7-4-2, 10-4-7-11-5, 3-4-7-11-5 occurring in pairs. The other two formulae are 10-8-7-11-5 and 10-8-7-11-9 on two board shapes, whose cells become ever more tenuously connected. 4 . KNIGHT'S TOUR NOTES 40 cells: These five examples using 40 cells are all within a 9×9 area. One pair has the formula 6-12-4-7-11-5 (with 4-7 taken two ways). The other three are 6-12-8-7-11-5, 6-12-8-7-11-9 (differing only at cells 5 and 9) and 6-12-13-7-11-9. 48 cells: Here are three octonary tours of 48 cells within a 9×9 area. A pair with formula 10-8-12-4-7-11-5, and another with formula 10-8-12-13-7-11-9. 56 cells: A pair of octonary tours of 56 cells in an 11×11 area. Formula: 1-7-4-13-12-18-8-2. 5 . KNIGHT'S TOUR NOTES 64 cells: Octonary tour of 64 cells within an 11×11 area. Formula: 3-4-12-8-18-11-7-17-9. 72 cells: Octonary tour of 72 cells within the 11×11 area. Formula 15-12-13-16-8-18-11-7-17-9. 80 cells: A pair of octonary tours of 80 cells, the maximum possible within the 11×11 area. Formula: 3-8-18-11-16-13-7-4-12-19-9. These are the largest examples of this symmetry that I have constructed. 6 . KNIGHT'S TOUR NOTES ======================================================================== Birotary ======================================================================== Birotary symmetry, also known as ‘oblique quaternary symmetry’, is altered by reflection, but not by 90° rotation. This is also possible in tours on Square Boards of sides 6, 10, 14, 18, etc. (see 5). 16 cells: Two birotary tours on a board formed of four 2×2 boards, surrounding a single-cell hole. 20 cells: Four birotary tours (Jelliss 2013). Two on one board. One with four holes. 24 cells: Four birotary tours on a 5×5 with centre hole and with corner cells moved one step diagonally. The four corner cells cannot however be added at the middle of each side, to give a board with octonary symmetry, since this fails to maintain the correct balance of colours when chequered. 28 cells: Within a 6×6 area there are 10 birotary tours covering 28 cells, using four shapes of board, one with four single holes in a skew pattern. 7 . KNIGHT'S TOUR NOTES 32 cells: Three boards of assorted shapes, with holes, showing 90 degree rotation. 36 cells: Birotary symmetry is possible on the 6×6 board. Here are some alternative 36-cell boards on which birotary tours are also possible. These boards can be regarded as 4×4 with a pentomino added on each edge or corner. There are other cases the reader might like to investigate. Quaternary symmetry is also possible on 36-cell holey boards. This board shape is used by the Rajah of Mysore (#45 in Harikrishna 1871) but his tour (not shown here) is asymmetric. We add two with four single cell holes, and another pentomino example without holes. 8 . KNIGHT'S TOUR NOTES 40 cells: Two assorted holey boards with birotary tours. 44 cells: Three octonary board-shapes can be formed by adding two cells to each side of the 6×6, making 44 cells, and each of these can be toured in birotary symmetry. In the three further tours on the first board (Jelliss 24 May 2013) there are only four acute angles (as shown by the dots). Here is an oblique quaternary board with four oblique quaternary tours (Jelliss 2013). 9 . KNIGHT'S TOUR NOTES 48 cells: According to W. H. Cozens (1940) there are 64 tours with 90° rotary symmetry on the 7×7 centreless board. The first five quaternary tours here are formed from a set of closed quarter-tours of the board by ‘simple-linking’ (a further 15 asymmetric tours can be formed from the same set by this process). The first two are by Kraitchik 1927 and the other three are my own work. These are followed by two other examples from Kraitchik 1927. The last is from Bergholt memorandum 24 Feb 1916. Kraitchik Kraitchin Jelliss Jelliss Jelliss Kraitchik Kraitchk Bergholt 52 cells: Here are three 90° rotatory tours on boards formed from the 6 ×6 with four cells added to each edge in various formations (Jelliss 2013). The fourth example, below, with a T-tetromino added to each edge, is by S.Vatriquant (L'Echiquier 1928).

  • “Outlaw Pete”: Bruce Springsteen and the Dream-Work of Cosmic American Music
    “Outlaw Pete”: Bruce Springsteen and the Dream-Work of Cosmic American Music Peter J. Fields Midwestern State University Abstract During the 2006 Seeger Sessions tour, Springsteen shared his deep identification with the internal struggle implied by old spirituals like “Jacob’s Ladder.” While the Magic album seemed to veer wide of the Seeger Sessions ethos, Working on a Dream re-engages mythically with what Greil Marcus would call “old, weird America” and Gram Parsons deemed “cosmic American music.” Working suggests the universe operates according to “cosmic” principles of justice, judgment, and salvation, but is best understood from the standpoint of what Freud would call “dream work” and “dream thoughts.” As unfolded in Frank Caruso’s illustrations for the picturebook alter ego of Working‘s “Outlaw Pete,” these dynamics may allude to Springsteen’s conflicted relationship with his father. The occasion of the publication in December 2014 of a picturebook version of Bruce Springsteen’s “Outlaw Pete,” the first and longest song on the album Working on a Dream (2009), offers Springsteen scholars and fans alike a good reason to revisit material that, as biographer Peter Ames Carlin remarks, failed in the spring American tour of that year to “light up the arenas.”1 When the Working on a Dream tour opened in April 2009 in San Jose, at least Copyright © Peter Fields, 2016.

  • Povzdech a Nádech
    Povzdech a nádech Přestože to v průběhu uplynulého roku vypadalo, že se fanoušci Queen postupně rozštěpí na dvě části - milovníky a odpůrce nového hudebního projektu stárnou- editorial cích rockerů a mladičkého účastníka talentové soutěže, s uplynulou dobou se podstata sporu zdá být nepodstatná. Internetové diskuze vychladly, fanoušci po- stupně zapomněli. Možná až překvapivě rychle zapomněli. Ze zpětného pohledu se dokonce celá spolupráce Queen a Adama Lamberta zdá být jaksi nevýznamnou. I v mé mysli jsou aktuální vzpomínky pomalu překrývány zážitky o mnoho silnější- mi, tedy z turné v roce 2008. Že by to celé byl prostě omyl, šlápnutí vedle? Já jsem rozhodně nepatřil k těm, kteří projekt odsuzovali. Stále zastávám názor, že výběr zpěváka je čistě na Brianovi s Rogerem a koncert v Polsku, kterého jsem se účast- nil, jsem si náležitě užil - po třech letech se konečně zase něco dělo. Leč ubíhající měsíce dávají spíše za pravdu kritikům projektu. Žádné nové zprávy o pokračování spolupráce se neobjevují. Brian, Roger a Adam se po šestici koncertů vrátili ke svojí práci a nastalo dlouhé, hluboké ticho. Nic nenaznačuje tomu, že by spolupráce mohla přerůst v projekt srovnatelný tím s Paulem Rodgersem. Možná pánové May a Taylor pochopili, že Lambert není tím pravým, možná nepřeskočila ona pověstná jiskra, možná dali za pravdu kritikům, možná mají moc jiné práce, možná jsou již moc staří a nebo prostě nechtějí... Vraťme se teď však v myšlenkách do letních dnů roku 2012 a připomeňme si tento kontroverzní projekt na stránkách našeho magazínu. ■ Po skončení Vzpomínky na Queen jejíž hlavním hostem byla Freddieho sestra Kashmira, jsem si říkal, že tohle byl absolutní vrchol.

  • A Watch Fit for a Rock Star
    A watch fit for a Rock Star I am currently off work with a broken shoulder having crashed my mountain bike into a tree at speed! While away from the office I have being trying hard to occupy myself. I have learned to type pretty quickly with my left hand and have written this investigation, that I hope provides a good hit at a question I have seen asked and discussed loosely a few times over the years. What is the Seiko Diver worn by Brian May of Queen in the 1986 Magic Tour and often seen on his wrist since then? This all started when I sat down and watched the Wembley gig a few weeks ago. It was performed in 1986 as part of the ‘A Kind of Magic Tour’ I could clearly see that Brian was wearing a Seiko diver on a rubber strap. After watching this gig, I watched a few others I have and found that in earlier shows he either has no watch on, or something that is clearly not a Seiko. The next move was to search the forums to see if the question had been asked before, which it had been. Various answers were given; 6309 like Mick Jagger’s, SKX007, 7548 and a few others to mention besides, but all that I read were guesses and assumptions. So, with no definitive research to confirm the exact model, I set out trying to establish the evidence. The first job was to search for good close up photographs, of which there are very few; they are normally of Brian or his guitar, not his watch – Well guitar is his forte! The first good one I found helped massively, it is a black and white shot taken sometime in the 90’s/00’s I think.

  • A Magic Rook's Tour
    1 A Magic Rook’s Tour Stanley Rabinowitz Alliant Computer Systems Corp. 42 Nagog Park Acton, MA, 01720 A tour of a chessboard by a given chess piece is a sequence of moves by that piece such that each square of the chessboard is occupied once and only once during the journey. The tour is said to be reentrant if the chess piece can move from the last square of the tour directly back to the first square of the tour. Tours are possible by the King, Queen, Rook, and Knight, but not by a Bishop. When the occupied squares are successively numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, ..., the tour is known as a magic tour if the resulting numbered array is a magic square. The tour is a semi- magic tour if the result is only a semi-magic square (rows and columns add up to the magic constant, but the two diagonals do not both add up to the magic constant.) On the standard 8 × 8chessboard, a reentrant magic king’s tour is known [1]. This is also a reentrant magic queen’s tour. No fully magic knight’s tour is known, but there is a lot of literature on semi-magic knight tours [1-5]. We now round out our knowledge of magic tours by presenting a reentrant magic rook’s tour (Figure 1), believed to be new. For the reader’s convenience, we reproduce the reentrant magic king’s tour in Figure 2, and a reentrant semi-magic knight’s tour in Figure 3. 61 62 63 64 1 2 3 4 12 11 10 9 56 55 45 53 20 19 18 48 17 47 46 45 60 59 58 8 57 7 6 5 37 38 39 25 40 26 27 28 13 14 15 49 16 50 51 52 21 22 23 24 41 42 43 44 36 35 34 33 32 31 30 29 Figure 1: Magic Rook’s Tour Reprinted from the Journal of Recreational Mathematics, 18(1985–86)203–204 2 61 62 63 64 1 2 3 4 60 11 58 57 8 7 54 5 12 59 10 9 56 55 6 53 13 14 15 16 49 50 51 52 20 19 18 17 48 47 46 45 21 38 23 24 41 42 27 44 37 22 39 40 25 26 43 28 36 35 34 33 32 31 30 29 Figure 2: Magic King’s Tour 46 55 44 19 58 9 22 7 43 18 47 56 21 6 59 10 54 45 20 41 12 57 8 23 17 42 53 48 5 24 11 60 52 3 32 13 40 61 34 25 31 16 49 4 33 28 37 62 2 51 14 29 64 39 26 35 15 30 1 50 27 36 63 38 Figure 3: Semi-Magic Knight’s Tour References [1] W.

  • A.Q.F.C.V. Austrian Queen Fan Club Vienna WIENER GESCHICHTEN – QUEEN UND FREDDIE MERCURY in WIEN
    A.Q.F.C.V. Austrian Queen Fan Club Vienna WIENER GESCHICHTEN – QUEEN UND FREDDIE MERCURY IN WIEN Besondere, enge Beziehung zu Wien Queen und Freddie Mercury hatten schon immer eine ganz besondere, enge Beziehung zu Wien. Dies zeigt sich dadurch, dass sie auf ihren Tourneen immer wieder in Wien spielten, einige Promotion-Videos in Wien drehten und auch sonst sehr mit der Stadt verbunden waren. Live In Vienna Queen spielten mit Freddie sieben Mal in Wien, mit Paul Rodgers zwei Mal und mit dem neuen Gastsänger Adam Lambert ist für den 01.02.2015 wieder eine Liveshow in der Wiener Stadthalle geplant. Auch wenn Freddie Mercury nicht mehr mit der Band auf der Bühne stehen kann, gibt es keine Queen + Show ohne ihn. Freddie singt am Videoscreen „Love Of My Life“ und „Bohemian Rhapsody“ und ist in Foto- und Videozuspielungen während der Show immer wieder präsent. Das erste Mal in Wien Queen spielten das erste Mal bei der „News Of The World-Tour“ am 02.05.1978 in der Stadthalle. Das Highlight war eine lange Version von „Spread Your Wings“, welche Freddie mit „You call it Wien – we call it Vienna!” ankündigte. Hot Space in Vienna 4 Jahre später spielten Queen wieder in Wien. Diesmal jedoch bereits zwei Mal in der ausverkauften Stadthalle. Das Doppelkonzert der „Hot Space Tour“ fand am 12. und 13.05.1982 statt. Bei diesem Wienaufenthalt bezogen Queen vorerst das Hotel Intercontinental, wechselten jedoch sofort ins Hotel Imperial. Dort entstand ein berühmtes Promofoto mit Spiegeln und Kristallluster. Könige im Bild und Ton Der Showbeginn am 12.05.1982 in der Stadthalle mit „Flash“ sowie die Zugaben "Another One Bites The Dust (Freddie im Bademantel) / We Will Rock You / We Are The Champions / God Save The Queen" wurden von DoRo Productions - besser bekannt als das Wiener Videoproduzenten-Duo Rudi Dolezal und Hannes Rossacher - gefilmt.
